The Big Book of Secret Societies wrote:The Council of Hats was formed in 2007 by Pepik, Hugodrax, John-Boy, along with JudgeRusty who happened to be a Freemason. The council was formed with the intent of promoting charitable works within the community. Each member was to swear their loyalty to their own country and to the Grand Poobah of the Council. The first Grand Poobah was Pepik. There were originally three degrees of initiation into the order: The visor, the ball cap, and the sublime degree of Master Fedora.
Jruegg joined shortly before the prohibition against non-western hats.

However in The Council of the Hats Decoded, page 159, a different story is told.

A member who didn't wish to be identified wrote:Oh, yeah. The whole love your fellow man and do good works is our public image. Our real purpose is to lock threads that bring no one joy, but the original poster.

2017 was a crucial time for the council. With the addition over the years of Fainn, UncleBob, BobsUrUncle, AntiDel, and Cletus, as well as others, the founding members decided it was time to issue a grand sharter for the Council in order to codify some essential beliefs of the society.
1. It was determined that Fezes were only popular with Fainn, Del, and Goose55 and the degrees stood as originally intended.
2. No one was to ever wear a utilikilt while on official Council of Hats business.
3. Tobacco was acceptable in four forms only and it was up to each member to search their own conscience when determining which forms to consume.
